The Marine veteran who murdered 12 people in California this week had PTSD and was likely prescribed medications tied to most mass shootings.

The no-nonsense approach to dealing with criminals like this is not to wait for the police.  Once they have decided to break the law and threaten your family in the way these hoodlums did, they need to be put down, permanently.

This doesn’t sound like the words of a Marine to me.  It sounds like the words of a gun confiscator activist.

Reports have come out that the shooter has positioned himself on top of the building, but police have yet to confirm that.

You may not like the sound of that, but our forefathers bore with a lot until the violence came to their front door and when it did, they didn’t hesitate in dishing it back out.

As Democrats dance toward the 2020 presidential elections, it’ll be interesting to see if anyone can go further toward the anti-gun side than Newsom, who seeks to push the numerous restrictive gun laws that have so badly hurt the Second Amendment in California on the rest of the nation’s gun owners.

California, you have your representatives to thank for this by making YOU a soft target everywhere you go.

Even the best-trained, most-experienced operators get caught off guard. The best you can do is to limit your distractions to pay attention to what matters.

Should we find ourselves in the position of having to defend ourselves against a deadly attack, we can focus on the threat itself and—should it be necessary to do some shooting—we can deliver the goods without hesitation, fumbling or conscious focus on the mechanics of the particular defense gun that we carry. That’s the kind of confidence that wins fights and saves lives.
